‘BET ON YOUR BABY’ PRAISED, TOPS RATINGS WITH PILOT EPISODE

Ratings and feedback revealed that ABS-CBN’s newest game show “Bet On Your Baby” proved to be an instant hit among television viewers with a well-received pilot episode that aired last Saturday (October 19).

Based on data from Kantar Media, “Bet On Your Baby” premiered to garner a national TV rating of 26.1%, nearly doubling that of its rival program, GMA’s “24 Oras Weekend,” which earned 14.4%.

Aside from that, the show’s official hashtag #BetOnYourBabyPH soared to the top of Twitter’s trending lists all over the country, paired with positive reviews and praises for the program.

The show’s host, hands-on mom Judy Ann Santos-Agoncillo, was very pleased with the pilot episode’s outcome and reception, expressing utmost gratitude through social media. “To everyone who waited for and watched Bet On Your Baby, thank you so much,” she said.

“Bet On Your Baby” first featured three Kapamilya stars with their children, including broadcast journalist Anthony Taberna and his daughter Helga, basketball star turned actor Benjie Paras and his daughter Sam, and Comedy Concert Queen Ai-Ai delas Alas and her son Seth.

Out of the three, Ai-Ai’s family advanced to the show’s jackpot round, taking home P60,000.

This Saturday (October 26), more celebrity babies will be taking on the game show with their parents. Joining Judy Ann next on “Bet On Your Baby” will be YouTube sensation and fliptopper Dello, actor/dancer Michael Flores with his beauty queen wife Nina Ricci Alagao, and showbiz talk show host and radio commentator Ogie Diaz.

Will one of them be lucky enough to take home the grand prize of P1 million this time around?
